Juventus are still in the race to sign Fiorentina ace Chiesa

The asking price hovers around €60 million as La Viola do not seem to be ready to let their player join rivals for nothing

Inter and Napoli are also believed to be in the race for versatile midfielder

Fiorentina star Federico Chiesa is not just a target for Juventus, as Inter and Napoli also appear to be tracking the flying progress of the 21-year-old La Viola star.

Juventus and Inter will reportedly battle it out for Fiorentina talent Federico Chiesa in the summer. The forward has been impressing for the Viola over the past few seasons, and has also performed well for Italy in recent matches.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus general manager Giuseppe Marotta had essentially agreed a deal to bring him to Turin in the summer of 2019.

However, the director will now be working for the Nerazzurri, and that could create a transfer war between the two.

Juve are still thought to be in pole position, but sporting director Fabio Paratici will have to move fast to stop his mentor from hijacking the deal, while Carlo Ancelotti's Napoli are also said to be 'closely monitoring' Chiesa's situation with La Viola.

The Bianconeri are ready to invest around €60m for Chiesa, part of which could be made up by sending a player in exchange.
